    Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    ! ! ! IMPORTANT NOTICE ! ! !

    You might have realised the digital track listed above is a little pricey. If you really want to buy it, we’re not going to stop you! Bandcamp no longer supports physical albums without a digital download. So we faked one ;-) However, we much prefer you purchase the Basic Moves 06 vinyl, because that is the actual, physical release. Digital files will be sent to all who order the record, but PLEASE NOTE these are vinyl masters that were not originally intended to be sold/distributed digitally.

    “Deg sings the blues”

    Following their first dive into the Earguard studio archives which led to BM02, Basic Moves have tapped the source again and selected two raw, previously unreleased productions from 1996.

    For dj Deg, this was a transitional period: a moment to look back on the genesis of Circadian Rhythms and a time to look forward to both personal and artistic evolution. On the A-side of BM06 lies a track where house and techno come together to shape a mysterious, hypnotic atmosphere. “Sinh Session” is coloured with the warmth and passion that Deg absorbed from his musical influences of the time and it reflects an era of great emotional importance: for him, each track holds a story.

    The second track “There is no hope?” was co-created in 1996 with long-term associate, Mike D.M.A. (they’d been producing together since 1989). Its title resonates with the impression of saturation felt in the mid-nineties, as if everything has been seen and done. There seemed to be a loss of energy and appetite, which foretold a decline of the Belgian underground techno scene to come in the following years.

    Most of the Circadian Rhythms output, either made alone or as a pair, was created during one-shot live sessions that also spawned parallel projects in other styles. Deg and Mike were in a phase of constant self-assessment, always experimenting and researching. You could say a wind of change was blowing, a shift could be felt: in fact, what they were making was completely out of phase with their audience’s expectations. They took the time to explore other musical territories, deconstructing and rebuilding new foundations in order to create a very personal identity. As we can conclude today: time was, and still is, their ally.

    In their own words: “we’re not stuck in the past, we’re always thirsty for the future.”

about

Circadian Rhythms Brussels, Belgium

Deg doesn't really need a introduction in the Belgian underground nightlife scene any more. His name breathes techno! As a music fan and incredible record digger he constantly revisits the core of dance music: ranging from synth, library and wave, to jazz, funk and disco. His mid-90's production alias Circadian Rhythms recently got a new start with two releases on Brussels-based label Basic Moves. ... more
